And that would pretty much depend on him getting his name changed.
Given the way his life seems to go, if he managed that he'd probably be okay... Remember that arc where he rescued three beautiful girls on after the other?
... Actually, I'm kind of surprised/glad that we don't see too many Taro/Rouge fics.
I'm not sure if even Taro has much hope for his name being changed these days...when the Rouge arc happened, he didn't even try to find Happosai, and it was implied in the incident you mentioned that he just kind of snapped due to all of that just piling up on him...I mean, three girls right in a row...
That said, even without his name-related issues, while Taro made a favorable initial impression on them, it's hard to say how long that would actually last. Taro seems to be foul-mouthed, arrogant, egotistical, and something of a bastard. While he has a few heroic impulses, or at least the impulse to try and win over women in the hopes that they won't ask inconvenient questions about his name...well, I suppose if he met the right girl, she might put up with him, dreams of global domination and all.
As for Taro/Rouge, frankly, I'm not surprised...Rouge was a very minor character, only showed up for one arc in the manga, and not at all in the anime, which many people are going off of rather than the manga, and very rarely shows up in Ranma 1/2 fanfiction at all, and Taro, while a bit more present, doesn't exactly have a lot of screentime in Ranma 1/2 fanfiction. When both are present, though, they usually seem to wind up together, though, in all honesty, I have my doubts about how well they'd get along, since she seems to cordially loathe him, even if that technically
was a misunderstanding. Rouge has her share of mental issues as well, despite her outwardly normal demeanor, and, as has been shown, doesn't hesitate to unleash her other side at all.
